amelia_petkovaI've started building a playlist of all the classical music used in Princess Tutu. You guys, I've only made through the second episode and THIS PLAYLIST IS ALREADY AN HOUR LONG. I can't even guess how long it'll be by the time I get to the end of Season 2.
SO MANY damn reasons to love Princess Tutu.
